“Fifty courageous families moved from Prinsburg, Minnesota to Texas to launch this new venture. Many of those original families still live there and work at Duininck to this day. In 1996, Duininck expanded its Minnesota branch and strengthened its regional presence. By 2003, the grandchildren of the original founders had fully assumed ownership of the business. In 2026, the fourth generation of owners joined the company, helping continue this family legacy. Duininck's guiding principles of treating people well, respecting the communities it serves, and doing the work the right way have not only been the foundation of its success, but have positively impacted every community its work has touched. Duininck has created jobs and supported our economy for generations, strengthening the communities it calls home.”
“Founded in Prinsburg, Minnesota, it all started with two brothers and their road grading enterprise in 1926. With workhorses and iron graders, their pioneering spirit laid the foundation for their future success. Two years later, the third Duininck brother joined their team, solidifying this first-generation partnership that would build a lasting legacy. In the 1950s, seven sons joined the business to continue the family venture. Soon after, they expanded further regionally, supporting President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Federal-Aid Highway Act to invest in America's interstate highway system. Duininck's work on these major projects established its reputation for excellence in heavy highway and civil construction. In 1985, Duininck expanded its operation to Texas for highway and government airfield construction.”

“Cloud VFW, the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association, and others is truly making a difference in the lives of Minnesota's veterans. It was great to see so many people come together in our district to support this noble cause. The community engagement on this was truly inspiring to see. From local business leaders and project sponsors to community partners and our veterans, the hope and healing that Angel Reins brings is something only patriotic Minnesotans could come together to accomplish. In the 250th year of our great Nation, it is an honor to recognize Angel Reins and its partners' dedication to our veterans and others in need. ____________________”
“The horse-human connection that Angel Reins fosters helps survivors heal and experience meaningful change. In commemoration of Flag Day, it was an honor to recognize Angel Reins at the dedication of their new facility, the Rescue Ridge, commonly known as ``The Ridge.'' On Flag Day, June 14, 2026, The Ridge was officially dedicated with a Flag Raising Ceremony. This new cabin will serve as a gathering place for all those served by Angel Reins. I am thrilled that both the American flag and the old Minnesota flag were proudly flown. They will continue to fly proudly day after day. To the Combat Veterans who raised the flag they so bravely fought for and defended, I thank them. Their service and sacrifice do not go unnoticed. The partnership between Angel Reins, the St.”
